Ji Xing's voice was filled with anger and shook the small tree house with undeniable power. Lin Keqing's soul was unstable, and he made a painful sound in his mouth and ran away quickly, while Xiao Yu was frightened.
I fell off the bed and landed on the ground.
She squinted her eyes and watched Lin Keqing turn into an afterimage and escape. She was worried about how she should "roll over" when a virtual mirror with her own body appeared on the ground next to her. Xiao Yu poked his head out and saw
There is a candlelight shining on the other side of the Virtual Mirror Realm Gate, which is the Taoist altar leading to the Pole Star.
"Come!"
Ji Xing's voice came from the virtual mirror again, as if urging her. Xiao Yu gritted her teeth, endured the pain on her back, rolled on the ground, and rolled into the boundary gate.
The gate leads to the Taoist altar. As the sound of heavy objects hitting the ground came from the Taoist altar, Xiao Yu fell from mid-air and hit Ji Xing's feet heavily.
She looked up and saw that Ji Xing today was wearing a pure white robe. There were pictures and texts transformed from spiritual power on the robe dotted around the edge, adding a bit of fairy spirit. His eyes were very serious, and he pursed his lips angrily, waiting for what was before him.
's apprentice.
Xiao Yu was so frightened by Ji Xing's eyes that she quickly rolled up from the ground and knelt upright in front of him.
She looked up at Jixing's face and felt that Jixing seemed much more haggard after sleeping for so many days.
The person in front of me is Xiaoliu's master who has been with him day and night for sixty years, and is also Xiaoliu's only relative in this world.
Boom, boom, boom, I don't know whether it was Xiao Liu's heart or Xiao Yu's own heart that was beating crazily at this moment, because she thought of Xiao Liu's memory that she accidentally retrieved when she was in Hesheng Hall.
If it's Xiao Yu's own heartbeat, it's probably because of her fear of the pressure of Jiexing; if it's Xiaoliu's heartbeat, based on that memory, Xiao Yu has some bold guesses...
This nineteen-year-old girl fell in love with her master in the last stage of her life.
Presumably before the master-disciple quarrel, Xiaoliu was wrapped in a contradiction for a long time. She fell in love with Ji Xing, but was timid about ethics, so she didn't confess her love for a long time. This kind of contradiction became over time.
Her obsession. And this obsession later became a physical memory.
So now, Xiao Yu is kneeling in front of Jixing. Under the candlelight is Jixing's angry but still handsome face. Xiaoliu's obsession is once again secretly revealed through his heartbeat.
This heartbeat full of unwillingness and reluctance caused inexplicable pain in Xiao Yu's heart. A tear slipped down Xiao Yu's cheek, but she quickly wiped it away.
"woke up……?"
Jixing lowered his head and asked, with some anger still remaining on his face, but more of it was worry.
"Wake up, wake up..."
Xiao Yu paused.
Her eyes glowed faintly under the candlelight. She suddenly plucked up the courage, smiled on her face, and said something to Pole Star.
"Master, I really miss you during this time."
Xiao Yu's words made Jixing stunned for a long time, but he soon returned to his normal expression, and complex emotions flashed across his eyes for a moment. Xiao Yu didn't know how he felt at the moment, but at least she felt sorry for Xiaoliu at this moment.
Feeling a little less guilty.
"This is the last time Master will ask you, do you have anything to tell Master?"
The two masters and apprentices, one standing and the other kneeling, looked at each other in silence for a long time. After a while, Xiao Yu still shook his head.
When Ji Xing saw this, his face gradually turned pale, and there was some regret in his eyes.
"That's all, I won't tell you even if I ask you several times, just let your secrets be buried deep in your heart forever."
Jixing said softly, and then a small medicine bottle appeared in his hand. Jixing opened the cork, and a familiar smell wafted over, the aroma of fruitless fruit.
The bottle was held by Ji Xing. He gathered his spiritual power in his hand, and the medicine refined from the fruit in the bottle instantly turned into mist and surrounded Xiao Yu. In the mist, Xiao Yu felt that his pain was slowly disappearing.
, even the heat poison on the body is fading away, replaced by an extremely refreshing cold.
Jixing breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Xiao Yu's expression gradually improving.
"This is a medicinal solution made from the fruit and thousands of years of northern ice. It is used to remove corruption and blood stasis, and specializes in heat poisoning. However... your body has been planted with the cold heart Gu by Aunt Ying. Even without this medicinal solution, you will not be able to get rid of the poison for three days."
The day will gradually get better.”
Jixing gently pointed at Xiao Yu's heart with his hand and said solemnly.
"Han...what kind of Gu?"
Xiao Yu didn't seem to hear clearly and asked immediately. She recalled the scene when she suddenly became cold and fainted in the Hesheng Hall. She didn't know what happened to her at first, but now she finally understood that she had been poisoned by someone.
"There are thousands of kinds of voodoo, and the most powerful among them is undoubtedly the heart voodoo. There are three kinds that are known to the master in this world. From weakest to strongest, they are Burning Heart Valley, Heart-Eating Gu, and Cold Heart Gu..."
Saying that, Jixing looked at Xiao Yu.
"What you have planted is the Cold Heart Gu. As far as I know, there are only three in the world, and one of them is in you."
After hearing Ji Xing's words, Xiao Yu's hair stood up all over his body, and a look of fear appeared on his face.
"Master, am I going to die?" Xiao Yu asked in a trembling voice.
"The reason why the heart voodoo is so powerful is not because of how lethal it is. You won't die now. The heart voodoo affects people's character. For example, the cold heart voodoo in your heart will make your character colder every year.
A little thin, but over time... people will become disowned, as cold as ice, and eventually become heartbroken due to despair..."
After Ji Xing said this, he cast a distressed look at Xiao Yu. There were some complicated emotions in his eyes that were difficult to fathom.
"It's the death of the heart... but the death of the body, right?"
As if he understood Ji Xing's words, Xiao Yu raised his head and confirmed.
"That's right..." Jixing didn't understand why his apprentice asked this, but he answered sincerely.
"So that's what happened. It scared me to death... Fortunately, I'm still alive." Xiao Yu said while groping his chest with his hands, as if to comfort himself.
The performance of his apprentice made Ji Xing feel some inexplicable distress in his heart, just because he knew his apprentice's character better than anyone else. On the surface, he seemed careless, but in fact he was very thoughtful.
She must be feeling very uncomfortable at this moment.
Under such sadness, Jixing unconsciously reached out his hand and patted her head.
"But having said that, if you want to practice the World Weaving Elemental Technique to the pinnacle in the future, I'm afraid you will need something like this to help you control your mind after you achieve it. Even if it is not the Cold Heart Gu, there must be something else to replace it. Plant it as soon as possible.
, it may not be all bad, but you will have to suffer a lot because of this thing in the future."
"Yinggu had no choice but to plant Cold Heart Gu on you at this time. She may have foreseen something. The Fire Queen and you have some connections, but it's just a bad fate, not a good fate. So
People's hearts have been blinded by hatred. This chilling Gu can protect you from her killing move, but you must be extremely careful. If you see her again before you break through, you'd better stay away!"
"As for the fate between you, Master will tell you when the time comes. She is also a pitiful person."
Ji Xing spoke earnestly, sighed softly, and spoke slowly.
Although these words made Xiao Yu a little confused, after all, the Fire Queen was only in the later stage of Yuan Cheng, but Ji Xing had a reason for saying this, so Xiao Yu saluted with both hands without hesitation and nodded in agreement.
As for the bad relationship between Huohou and Xiaoliu...if Jiexing wanted to say it, he would have said it already, so why bother to keep it secret like this. So Xiao Yu chose to keep silent and wait for the follow-up opportunity.
Then, she looked at Ji Xing with bright eyes.
"Master, please teach me attack spells!"
Xiao Yu's firm voice echoed in the empty dojo, causing the candlelight around him to sway a few times. Jixing's face showed doubts, as if he was thinking about something.
"Do you have any plans?" Jixing noticed that Xiao Yuyan seemed to have an idea and asked softly.
"My disciple was chased by the Queen of Fire while he was still in his soul. He was saved by his benefactor when he was about to die. Now I know that my benefactor is in the demon clan in the south, so... my disciple wants to go south to find him and repay his kindness."
"……go alone."
Xiao Yu put his hands together in salute and made a solemn request.
Jixing sighed softly. He had expected that one day, his apprentice would have to leave sooner or later when he grew up. Although he was mentally prepared, he still felt a little uncomfortable.
"Then we will have a period of one month. During this month, my master will take you to the cold area, teach you killing spells, and sharpen your sword skills. If you can break through to the late Yuancheng stage, my master will allow you to go to the south.
Otherwise, there is no need to discuss anything!”
"this……"
Xiao Yu hesitated for a long time, hesitating in his heart.
She said she wanted to repay her kindness, but in fact, she wanted to find Lu Wentian and know the real secret of his spell. She also held on to other lucky hopes, hoping that she could go back and Xiaoliu could come back too.
She hopes that her and Xiaoliu's fates will return to their own paths.
